[sword-devel] Module upload: OSHB

[David Haslam]

It's not just the email announcements.

Our website looks somewhat stale because the RSS feed is only partially operational.
https://crosswire.org/sword/index.jsp

Nothing new in the narrow left hand News column since the WHNU module was released in April 2014.
The first part of the column is headed "Latest new or updated modules:"
That's somewhat misleading when the items shown immediately below are almost four years old.

Only the central Current News pane is being updated by "refdoc".
That's the same as we have in the RSS feeds.
http://www.crosswire.org/sword/modules/pubmods.rss
or
https://crosswire.org/sword/sword.rss.jsp

I expect the required fix is something trivial that's been overlooked.

Best regards,

David

> The whole automatic email system needs a massive rewrite, but to be honest, it is currently for me only one point of several which still hurt in my semi automatic upload system. I am a lot faster now than I was 4 years ago when I started uploading modules, simply because so much is now run automatically and tested and checked, but there are several bug bears left.
